SYSmark2001 uses real world applications
concurrently as an accurate way to test the system by following patterns that
reflect the way real users work. SYSmark2001's workloads accurately represent
today's updated business usage model. The benchmark runs at a realistic
execution speed, with think times between application interactions, in order to
emulate a desktop user's interaction with the operating system and
applications.

Higher numbers denote better
performance.

It's common knowledge that the P4 doesn't do well in current office
based benchmarks and SysMark simply slaps the P4 around. Overclocking seems to
help out a little, but it doesn't really make these scores
seem respectable. Intel states that once office applications have optimization for SSE2,
things will change, but I think that's a terrible reason
personally.

Content Creation Winstone
2001 keeps multiple applications open at once and switches among those
applications. Content Creation Winstone 2001's activities focus on what we call
"hot spots," periods of activity that make your PC really work--the times where
you're likely to see an hourglass or a progress bar.

Business Winstone is a
system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall
performance when running today's Windows-based 32-bit applications on Windows 98
ME, Windows NT 4.0 (SP6 or later), Windows 2000, Windows Me, or Windows XP which
runs real applications through a series of scripted activities and uses the time
a PC takes to complete those activities to produce its performance
scores.

Again, those are
some of the worst numbers we've seen in the last little
while. It's not the fault of the AV45GTR, the P4's performance in anything sub 1.7
GHz is rather lousy because of it's relatively low IPC (Instructions Per Clock).

WinBench 99 is a
subsystem-level benchmark that measures the performance of a PC's graphics,
disk, and video subsystems in a Windows environment. WinBench 99's tests can run
on Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows Me
systems.

The trend continues. We had to use a Maxtor 10GB
DiamondMax HDD to benchmark because our reference 30GB IBM died earlier in the
week. That's why the disk benchmarks are so low. As for the graphics
benchmark, it seems that the VIA P4X266A chipset is still immature. Newer motherboard
drivers should fix that. Notice the very nice boost when
the system is overclocked.
